Future Events Will Kidd and Killer flashback come during the war or after the war?

#2
soon

it won't be long tho

I think we will get the general idea of what his character is about, then gradually show more panels here and there to fill the gaps

I think he's related to Rocks pirates and that's why he's part of the arc

my bet he's the son of captain john like many theorised, he mentioned he wanted to retrieve something that belongs to him in WCI, Captain john is known to have a big treasure collection, so it's possible he wanted to take back his father treasure

Never heard about captain John theory (sounds interesting), but he should have recognized Luffy's bracelet back in Sabaody if this was true, don't you think?

Captain john and Kid are pirates that who existed in real life, and John was Kid father

idk maybe he don't know about every piece of treasure john had, and know only about the most important one

After the war. Oda has made obvious connections between Kid and Shanks. Kid kills people who laughs at his dream while Shanks taught Luffy not to. It’s almost like Kid never grew up with a role model. Shanks took Kids arm while he gave his arm to protect Luffy. The parallels are obvious here. Kid will be very relevant post Wano because of his connection to Shanks and will probably get his flashback in whatever arc focuses on Shanks.

I thought about this as the most possible, but imo Oda should show something before they leave Wano and don't postpone to the next story arc. At least some hints.
All Kidd journey in the NW and his motivations have been pretty mysterious until now.

I hope not. We don't need to see it, they are pirates going after the One Piece, that's enough informations.
Let's not make the arc longer with useless flashbacks.
We didn't have a flashback for Capone just some infos about his past and that was more than enough. We had informations about Kidd's past, what else is there to learn?

Why tho? Their flashback will be boring. Better to show a few panels.

We won't find anything new. Just why Kidd and Killer grew in fucked up situations probably because WG and Killer respect Kidd as Vergo did for Doffy.

It's the same deal as with Yamato's flashback. But people will rate her flashback more valuable because they will get to see Ace lol.

Kidd's weight > Capone's weight in everything, that's obvious
Also we had flashback of a damn fox (for example) can't see why a character with much more important backstory shouldn't get his own.

Probably earlier but we don't know if Kidd v Kaido will even occur again.. so maybe post fight in that case.

There are just too many things Oda needs to roll and Kidd is not a priority for now I believe.

But their clash (the first one) is meritorious of a flashback overall.
And what do you think will he do, stand and watch?

Imagine giving Yamato (a new entry since like 15 chapters) more spotlight than someone like Kidd :whitepress:

There shouldn't be a flashback for Kidd and Killer because it wouldn't tie up with the story.
We got Law's flashback in dress Rosa because he was directly linked to Doffy.

But in this arc, Kidd and Killer have nothing to do with Kaido, a flashback isn't necessary.

We may have one for Kaido that will include Yamato, but I doubt we will see 2 different flashbacks for these 2 characters

I don't see value in Yamato's flashback too.

But just Kidd's flashback. Oda would need to flex his brain as fuck. We had a glimpse mention of how he was. I mean he was a poor cocky kid and Killer just followed him.

I think he will fight a strong folk that will make him occupied but Zoro and Luffy are more likely to fight Kaido to me, same for Law.

Of course we don't know... it's not possible to really predict these match ups for now. Maybe Kidd will do something too, but I don't see him portrayed to play a big role as for now.

So do you think we'll have it in the future or that we'll not have it, period. Cause the second choice seems difficult to happen to me, to much hype on them.

This is too reductive for One piece, and you know it

He's the most near to Kaido alongside Luffy, Jimbe and Killer. Is full of rage and his partner suffered the same fate of the people of Ebisu. It's hinted that his other crewmates (Heat Wire) have been imprisoned for some time. Imo there's no way for him to have a secondary role. He has better reasons than Law, for example.
